    The Grand Illusion album was released a few days before my 11th b-day. Release date was 7- 7 - '77. It became and has remained as my #1 favorite album ever. My first concert was seeing Styx in 1979 on their Cornerstone tour at 13 years old.

    Another Styx song you should check out is Queen of Spades
    Prelude 12/Suite Madam Blue
    Prelude 12 is the intro to Suite Madam Blue so you definitely check out the version that has it because not every one does.

    I wore out a cassette of this album, in a 1970 MGB, on a Pioneer Supertuner, with Jensen Coaxial speakers, and a Realistic EQ. Brings back many memories and a slight acid flashback.

    Good reaction! Here are a couple of "Styx" suggestions that are very different, to show you this band's range: "Suite Madam Blue" (epic, proggy), and "Boat On the River" (sort of a folk-rock ballad).

    Hey Man, I watched your reaction video, you said you were in a marching band and I take it
    you were percussion ? I'd like you to look at a few drummers solo's. I never took a drum lesson in my life, didn't take band in school but these are the drummers that inspired me to
    pick up a set of 7A sticks ! 1st is Kiss (live) the song 100,000 Years, 2nd is Grand Funk
    Railroad (Live) Mark Don & Mel 69-71 the song is T.N U. C. and 3rd is Black Oak Arkansas
    Raunch & Roll Live the song is UP. I went crazy like these guys ! LOL Hope you enjoy and I didn't read ya wrong !

    This song was the intro song for the concept album of the same name. It’s a sort of gateway song setting the stage for the remaining songs which are similar in theme about the illusions of life. My recommendation is to step through the songs in order on the album. You’ll see the 3 songwriters and singers of the group. 😎😎
